NATCO Pharma profit falls 60.8% to 203 crore rupees in second quarter
Key Facts
NATCO Pharma’s net profit fell 60.8% year on year to about 203 crore rupees in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, from about 518 crore rupees in the corresponding period of the previous fiscal year, according to an NDTV Profit report published on November 13, 2026. The profit decline coincided with a drop in revenue from operations, reflecting lower business activity during the quarter. The report said revenue from operations was 967 crore rupees, compared with 1,363 crore rupees a year earlier. That marked a 29% annual decline in the metric. The results therefore showed profit and revenue moving lower together compared with the corresponding period.
The decline was steeper in earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortisation, with EBITDA falling 55.4% to 258.3 crore rupees in the quarter from 579 crore rupees a year earlier, according to the report. The gap between the declines in revenue and EBITDA shows that operating earnings contracted faster than sales during the period. The EBITDA margin also fell to 26.7%, from 42.5% in the corresponding quarter of fiscal 2026. The margin declined by 1,580 basis points year on year. The lower margin adds to the picture of operating weakness reflected in the profit and revenue figures.
Other income fell to 52 crore rupees in the second quarter of fiscal 2027, from 100 crore rupees in the corresponding period a year earlier, according to NDTV Profit. This means the item fell to nearly half its year-earlier level, alongside the decline in revenue from operations. The report included the decline in its breakdown of the quarterly results, alongside the falls in EBITDA and its margin. These figures complete the set of performance measures accompanying the drop in net profit. The comparison in each case is with the same period of the previous fiscal year.
